Default House tearing up power supplies. Possible bad wiring?

Lately my gf's moms house has been tearing up power supplies. They had
a laptop power source go bad, and then 2 more after that. Its weird
that all these could go bad at the same time. I also found out that
they have a guy doing some work around the house. I'm wondering if he
did something to mess up the wiring as most his other work was very
poorly done. The place is out of town so I don't have access at the
moment but wondering if you had any ideas on what could possibly be
going on?

thanks


If there is an electrical situation that is causing power supplies to fail,
it would most likely be affecting other things as well. She could have high
or low voltage conditions, but I'd think that they'd be noticeable in dim or
bright lights. I would suggest having someone test the service and grounding
to the building
